Researchers were interested in collecting data to examine whether there was a relationship between air pollutant and preterm births in SouthernCalifornia. During the study, air pollution levels were measured by air quality monitoring stations. Length of gestation (weeks of pregnancy) data were collected on 143,196 births between1989 and 1993, and air pollution exposure during gestation was calculated for each birth.
1. Do you think "air pollution levels" are numerical or categorical variables? Give an example of what this data might look like.
2.Can the results of this study be used to establisha causal relationship between airpollution and preterm births? Why or why not?
3.Do you think the results of this study can be generalizedto the population? Why or whynot?

I think qualitative methodologies are very valuable in advancing cross-cultural research. Qualitative methodologies are used in cross-cultural research by cultural anthropologist for what are called ethnographies. Ethnographies involve observation and field-work within the cultural context and require descriptive qualitative analysis. Some of the advantages of studies involving two or three countries compared to studies that involve ten or more countries are a more concentrated and have a smaller study group. Another advantage is being able to report various cultural variables as it relates to the study and qualitative data.

- ADVERSE SELECTIONSomet Health Insurance Company wants to sell a health insurance product for $700 permonth. There is no requirement for healthy people to have insurance coverage. Thecompany conducts a survey to see how different populations respond to the proposed cost.People with no illnesses and disabilities, generally the young and healthy, respond that theydo not spend $700 on healthcare in an entire year, and most feel they would not waste somuch money on premiums when the chance of needing surgery or expensive healthcaretreatments is so small. However, older, sicker people think that $700 per month is a greatdeal, as most of them spend far in excess of this amount on healthcare. It seems like agreat deal for them.
